@stux Now we need an alternative Instagram frontend...... or even better one for Facebook.

@Mixtape@mstdn.social avatar

@stux Bibliogram is dead thanks to Meta constantly changing shit up.

Privacy aware services either always get killed by big tech somehow or never get any foothold....its annoying.

Its like everyone is forced to use US Services and hardware.......

ewww paywalls..... @stux

Mixtape,
@Mixtape@mstdn.social avatar

@stux more and more paywalls arent bypassable anymore. or they force u to track your every footstep to sell your soul to advertisers if you want to use their sites.

Money money and more money is all they want.

heck Netflix, X, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Disney+, Paramount+, Amazon Prime, Apple TV, how much are we suppossed to pay per month nowadays? Next Windows turns into a subscription to not be bombarded with ads......

Mixtape,
@Mixtape@mstdn.social avatar

@stux Microsoft now is putting ads all over the place, increasing hardware requirements, installing their stuff without asking, installing updates without asking, appearently breaking non-MS browsers on Microsofts services bla bla bla......

@Mixtape@mstdn.social avatar

@stux Lets not forget them blocking W10Privacy and similar, or StartAllBack and similar tools, Telemetry servers blocked in the hosts file get reset all the time bla bla bla

@stux I really hope your servers are properly secured

Mixtape,
@Mixtape@mstdn.social avatar

@stux I cant wrap my head around why companies still cant secure their stuff properly.......

Also i meant overall well secured, not just on this yet again high severity security issue........

Somehow id like to dig into IT, maybe even somewhat security related or other things as hobbies but i just cant get to it im way too much occupied with trying to not let this household drown in dirt, debree and maintenance issues.....

Fingerprinting-Testseiten suggerieren oft, dass man eindeutig erkennbar ist. Das ist allerdings nicht entscheidend, sondern ob man über Surf-Sessions hinweg wiedererkennbar/verfolgbar ist. Der Tor-Browser, Mull oder auch Brave schneiden hierbei gut ab. Am Ende gilt aber auch: Lasst euch nicht verrückt machen. 😉

@kuketzblog So langsam hab ich eh die Nase voll von mich über Privatsphäre Verletzungen aufzuregen.
Noch 10 oder 15 Jahre, alles nur noch Cloud, die Firmen haben keine eigene IT mehr und Microsoft die volle Kontrolle.
Google, Amazon, Adobe, Apple usw. genauso

@Natanox @kuketzblog Was soll man machen wenn die Hälfte der Welt nur noch PayPal zum bezahlen annimmt und die dann die Daten eh wieder mit Microsoft Google und Co. teilen?
Wenn der Arbeitgeber einen zu MS365 zwingt? KI/AI/ML Tools ihre Daten Gott weiß woher holen zum trainieren? Selbst die eigene Bank Facebook und Google Tracker nutzt? Die Hälfte aller Hardware auf Linux nicht vollständig läuft oder nur eingeschränkt?

Setz mal nen Büroheini vorn Linux Rechner und der weiß nicht mehr was ist

@Tutanota Not the installed system app but the web app at https://app.tuta.com

Its also still going today.

I kinda do like this layout setup :catblush:

Bottom menu is also nice for mobile but on iOS this kinda sucks with scrolling in many browsers

I know it looks familiar but we got an extra menu on top :bloblaugh:

(edit: better quality)

@Mixtape@mstdn.social avatar

@stux Can you build a FOSS Facebook alternative too? we could really use one.....

Mixtape,
@Mixtape@mstdn.social avatar

@stux That it doesnt lock you out if youre not logged in, doesnt sell your soul, listens to u sleep......

Doesnt need unneccessary amounts of data.......privacy overall to be honest and doesnt live out of selling user data.

Let's grab Trump by the assets :blobfoxfloofexplode:

@stux which assets?

stux, to microsoft
@stux@mstdn.social avatar

I still don't understand why classifies "driver updates" as optional :blobfox_explode:

whaat

Mixtape,
@Mixtape@mstdn.social avatar

@stux those updates are there in case of issues drivers run over Windows Update

Mixtape,
@Mixtape@mstdn.social avatar

@stux Windows entire software update system is a total mess.

Windows Update, Windows Update for anything else than Windows itself, Drivers over Windows Update, Edge has its own updater, Microsoft Store runs updates, then dozends of third parties that have updaters running in the background 24/7 and so on and so on.....

Linux always did this way better with package managers but even there we now got Snaps, Flatpaks, AppImages, Packages, Web apps......

I guess its about time to stop caring about privacy. Big tech will win always anyway.

Lemme just pay for Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok and all that other stuff like everyone else is. Or at least open an account on all of those services just to be able to view them at all.

Mixtape,
@Mixtape@mstdn.social avatar

@kohelet And those big techs nonstop find ways to block out alternative frontends somehow.

Now when i see that theres subscription related stuff being found in code of newer Windows Insider builds......

I mean cmon theres alternative OSes, softwares u name it out there but noone gives a damn appearently and rather pays overpriced, data hungry US based companies instead.

Just look at how much Windows and Office phone home all the time.....

Mixtape, to privacy
@Mixtape@mstdn.social avatar

As YouTube is now blocking out adblocker users there has been no better time yet to use alternative services or frontends on it.

@nextcloud

Nextcloud is suppossed to be a privacy cautious alternative for big tech so thats a good step in the right direction but theres more you could do....

Oh shit..

Maybe it's time to serious look for alternatives to the Netherlands.. 😟

Geert Wilders, well known racist seems to win the elections :blobcatscared:
